Look whats new

New from Moda is "Double Chocolate" designed by 3 Sisters...so yummy I know why they chose this name.

I only bought four fabrics in this range because there are so many other lovely ranges on their way.......

Can't have them all!....or can we? Yes you can, order a fat 1/8th pack if you like.

Also new from Paula Barnes some "Retro Geo", great to add some zing to your reproduction quilts...just love them.

Fat 1/8th packs also available in this range....be quick.

Fussy cutting....loving it!

I am usually very impatient to get new projects started and then finished.......But this time I thought I would fussy cut each of the stars required for the final border of the hexagon quilt I have been making and slow down a bit!

 

I am really pleased with them....only another 20 or so to make!

 

Off to sewing today to make some more!

Talented ladies....

I thought I would share with you some images of a group I sew with on a weekly basis...."Caroline Bay Quilters".

They are such a diverse group of ladies with some of them being winners at the Sydney Darling Harbour Quilt show.

 

 

Dee with her "Bug" quilt.

 

Marilyn with a very pretty scrappy quilt.

 

This quilt is a raffle quilt for the "Iris Foundation" here on the Central Coast. Helping children and teenagers at risk of suicide.

 

Six pointed star quilt.

 

Maxine just loves her hexagons!

 

 There is always plenty of help available.



 

And of course "Smokey" who really would like to come to sewing each week.....but I am not so sure he would be of much help to anyone!..........

 

He will just have to stay at home and guard the roses!

 

Until next time....

Carol.

Back Again

Well it's been sometime since I posted something on this Blog. Mainly because the system seems to hate me or I just can't work it properly!

Never the less I will give it another go.

I spent many hours on Sunday morning changing the look of the page and adding more links, so take your time, have a seat and take a peek and let me know what you think.

"Warmth" (above)

This year has been extremely busy, attending many shows and events as well as Retreats, but I have now come to that end of the working year that allows me more time to stitch. So I will keep you up to date with what I am working on.

Also I have recently opened my home 4 days a month (1st and 3rd Tuesday and Thursday of each month) allowing you to come and see my products "In the Flesh"...so to speak!
...or you can still shop online.

Hope to see you soon.

Tocal Retreat 2011

Where has the time gone? It seems like only a few weeks ago that I was letting everyone know the dates and information for Tocal retreat 2010 and here I am again talking about the retreat for 2011!

We always have a lovely time at Tocal. The location is just so relaxing, the companies great and the accomodation very comfortable.
This year we will be there over the weekend of October 28th – 30th and some ladies can’t wait to get there with bookings being made already.
Clare Cropano will be joining us this year with her magic fingertips. Clare is my massage therapist and works wonders on tired bodies. Bookings are essential if you would like to be pampered by Clare.
Last year some ladies requested a mystery quilt project for this year and I am hoping to have the quilt made and ready by then…LOL…it is still a mystery to me!
For further information on the retreat you can call me on 04 0042 0074 or email me at cherrypiedesigns@hotmail.com
